“But we don’t want people who watched ‘The Last of Us’ to think we’re all going to die,” Javaid said. “This is an infection that occurs in extremely ill individuals who are usually sick with a lot of other issues.”

Well how do you think it starts, soon enough the fungi will become smarter and start infecting less sick individuals

An otherwise healthy person can take care of a candida problem by eating a tbsp of coconut oil a day for a week, fyi. It’ll cause a big die off of the infection so you’ll feel like shit for a couple days while the dead yeast bits flood your waste management system though. Cut back sugar during so you’re not feeding the little fuckers while trying to kill them also.
TLOU was cordyceps, the same fungus that makes zombie ants. Thankfully not the same thing.

Yes, I don’t believe you.

I’m glad you don’t, because you’ll look it up on reputable sources at some point as a result.
Here’s one in case anyone else doesn’t want to take the time to do that.

Okay - I’m not going to take this further because I know what candida people are like, but even the title of that paper means it’s not relevant to a living human. Orange juice will kill cancer cells in vitro, it’s meaningless to extrapolate from that. Maybe a coconut oil massage is in order next time I’m feeling a little thrushy, but that’s about it.

I always thought it was a tbsp of maple syrup a day to take care of a canadian problem

A healthy person doesn’t have Candida Auris.
